  • The most important determinant of appropriate dosing is the clinician's judgment of the patient's response to therapy. The clinician must monitor the patient's response on several clinical parameters and adjust the dose accordingly. The stepwise approach to therapy emphasizes that once control of asthma is achieved, the dose of medication should be carefully titrated to the minimum dose required to maintain control, thus reducing the potential for adverse effects.
  • Suggested total daily doses for low, medium, and high dose inhaled glucocorticoid regimens are based on daily doses recommended by Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), National Asthma Education and Prevention Program (NAEPP), and/or product labeling[1-5]. This is not a table of equivalence.
  • Depending on the specific product, total daily doses are administered once or divided and given twice daily. Refer to local product information or a clinical drug reference (eg, Lexicomp).
  • Some doses are outside the approved product information recommendations.

DPI: dry powder inhaler; HFA: hydrofluoroalkane propellant metered dose inhaler.

* Evidence for additional improvement with dose increases >1000 mcg/day is limited.

¶ Select alternate preparation with higher mcg/actuation to improve convenience.

Δ Products shaded in light gray color are not available in the United States but are available widely elsewhere.

◊ Select preparation with fewer mcg/actuation.
